YETI Rambler Gallon Jug, Vacuum Insulated, Stainless Steel with MagCap

What caused me to give this 4 stars instead of 5? In order to prevent it from leaking, I have to CRANK the lid down so hard that it takes everything my wife and I combined have in us to unscrew it to clean and refill it, one holding it and the other unscrewing it. And both of us are large strong people. If the lid is just normally tight, it leaks around the rim of the lid like a sieve. And, no, its not cross-threaded, it screws on smoothly and easily. Pros: Everything else. If it werent for the need to use superhuman strength to close and open the thing, Id want to give it 6 stars. Sturdy bottle, sturdy handle, magnetic holder for pour spout lid works great, this thing is a tank.

Bought 13 of these for office gifts. Everybody loves this. Keeps ice all day on the jobsites. One came without a lid but all I need to do is call for a cap. Yeti is the BEST!

Loved it till i needed customer support! They make it so difficult to do anything except give them your money. If you need parts forget it. I was promissed a cap for my 1 gallon jug! It never came i contacted them and just gave up!

I got this gallon sized Yeti for my English Mastiff to keep his water cold on long trips and it worked perfectly when traveling from CT to GA! I compared it with other ones a little cheaper and found that some comparable but cheaper ones were reviewed and said to be rusting, so I paid a little more for the confidence I have in Yeti products. Very happy with my decision!

Holds water in Hot work truck ice cold for 2 days.

I must say my gut clenched when I hit confirm for this because of the price. But my hubby spends hours in the field in the heat during harvest and the 1 & 2 qt jugs u can find weren’t enough. There was almost no choices for a gallon except for the very pricey (gulp) Yeti, and maybe some other random things that wudnt do. Yeti passed the test with flying colors! We’d load it with ice and water in the morning- and after spending hours either on the hot floor (engine heat?) of our little semi or in the combine- even if the ice was gone at the end of the day the water was still ice cold! We filled it two days ago to go for a picnic. It spent at least 7-8 hrs in very warm conditions. Came home and left it. 48 hours exactly from first filling it (and we had opened it to drink as is evidenced by the amnt in the pic) there was still decent sized ice chunks left! Amazing. If this thing lasts us for a long time I think I’ll be able to say it was worth the price- although seriously $129 (approx????) is plenty no matter the quality. That’s my only complaint. The magnetic holder to set ur lid on is very strong- so no excuses for losing that lid!!!!

I have both the half gallon and 1 gallon jugs. They are great bullet proof jugs. Ill give a tip for the the leaking trend problem that almost everyone has with the rubber seal on the lid. Seals need to be moist, wet, lubricated,however you want to say it. What I do is take my finger wet it with water and run it ALL THE WAY AROUND the rubber seal. I do this 2 to 3 times to make sure the rubber seal is thourghly wet. Then I tighten the lid on, and loosen it up (you dont take the lid completely off, just loosen it where it has free play in the theaded part.) I do this 2 to 3 times. 1 TIME WONT DO. 2 times the least, 3 times the most. Then tightened it all the way. It seems complicated, but its a small procedure you need to do so you can transport your water, beverages, ect. Safety without leaks GUARANTEE. I have at first use it as a dry seal and it leaked on me once. Plus when you wet the seal its a little easier to take off than dry seal. My half gallon has gotten more field use than my 1 gallon cause I bought it first. I dropped the thing a couple of times and accidentally Hit it on those yellow metal or concrete poles at stores, without a dent and it was hard to. I keep the 1 gallon in the car, the half gallon comes where I go. But they hold the same temperature that the water comes out of the ground, all day long (no ice). No matter how cold or hot my car can get. They are well worth the investment if you are gone all day long at work or where ever. I also get alot of comments from others say thats a nice jug.

Really good quality bottle and I loved it. But it came dented so I returned it. For $130 it better be flawless. Then I discovered the Coldest Water brand. Same design, almost identical. I ordered it and sure enough it was the same structure as the Yeti. I think they are all, even the hydro flask, are made by the same manufacturer. They’re all also made in China. I was really hoping the yeti was made in USA but it’s only designed in the states. The Coldest Water brand is the exact same but it’s $30 cheaper bc it’s a less known brand. AND it also has a straw so you don’t have to lift the entire gallon over your head to get a sip. The stainless steel gallon with water in it is very heavy. In any case, which ever one you get, it’s a very good investment bc bpa from plastic is highly cancerous. You don’t even know if the water inside plastic bottles are what they say they are. These bottles are out in the sun on pallets at the markets. Please switch over to stainless steel, whatever brand, to avoid bpa. It is so so bad. I am not being paid by any of these companies. I just hate the damage done by plastic.

The reviews for this product are absurd. Does not leak at all unless you dont close it right which is a plain truism. Ive seen reviews about people saying it is really hard to open the jug, but another truism, if you close it really tight it will always be really hard to open back up just like anything else. You have to close it just right and it doesnt leak and it opens easily. There are two weak point where you are supposed to press on to open the jug. That will be by pressing both of your thumbs on the side of the handle and using the rest of your fingers to open the bottle really simple. If have been looking to buy a one gallon jug for a while that contains your water cold, i truly recommend this one for your liking. I use this jug every day and i do clean it everyday and it is quick and simple. Dont be afraid of spending 140 bucks if you have the money it is really worth it.

I only had it for little while and I love it. the only down side is that if you screw it on too tight you need the power of a god to un-screw it but I figured out out how to get a good seal on it with out struggling to un-screw when I need too for re-filling, other than that it is prefect and like youd expect it keeps thing cold or hot for hours at a time and it gets me to drink more water because the water I just there at an arms reach and has no flavor ones you give it a good clean (no strong chemicals as instruction say) and has a magnetic cap holder, worth every penny in my opinion, so in conclusion I love this jug because it gets me thru the enterer day with out worrying about running out of cold water and is super sturdy as well, (can dubbed up as a cooler sense the neck of this jug is big enough to fit a caned beavered)
